Hawker Hunter?! That’s a British military jet from the 40s. Is there another kind? Am I taking crazy pills?
I don’t read my replies

In the US, of 100 rapes against girls and women reported to the police, 18 will be prosecuted.
Jeffery Epstein and his cohort abused hundreds of girls, and all anybody cares about is what powerful man might be embarrassed. Has anyone proposed or suggested anything to protect girls from rich perverts?
From the founding till 1951, raping your wife was legal in all 48 states. And that protection extended in several states beyond the federal change. Some states even made common-law husbands immune.
The Christian Bible considers rape to be a property crime. in conservative circles, girls as young as 12 are regularly married off to their rapist.
The leading cause of death for pregnant people in the US is homicide.
I think young women considering men to be a threat is pretty rational.
My frustration with the Epstein list is that nobody seems to give a damn that girls were raped, only which powerful men can held to “account”.
Rich and powerful men can do whatever they please in this country and nobody cares about that, or who they hurt, only the political outcome matters.
Gun owners love stories about idiot gun accidents because it allows them to imagine “responsible” gun ownership is a thing.
The idea that our nervous system is the true “us” that pilots an inanimate and disposable body is the same dualism concept as a “soul”. Except it lacks the divinity of religion or the accuracy of biology; worst of both worlds. Science-fiction-scripture.
Violence against women is so common you need a gimmick to get national attention for a spree-killing.
I think the left would benefit more from being open to socialists rather than coddling fascists.
I would be way more sympathetic if these MAGA “defectors” gave a tiny shit about the little girls who got rapped, rather than than being disappointed their side lost this round.
The monster is sympathetic until it insists on visiting all of it’s own sufferings on an innocent: his potential bride. In creating the monster, Frankenstein was ignorant to the suffering he’d cause. Not so with the Monster’s plan for a bride. The Monster knows full well that the “bride” will suffer just as he has; he’s counting on it. Therefore no mater how you judge Frankenstein, the Monster is worse.
When Frankenstein and the monster have the conversation in the ice cave, the monster insists that his bride be especially hideous so that it will have no choice but the monster for a companion. Frankenstein is worried that won’t be enough to control a second monster.
These are the only times in the book the agency of this “bride” are ever considered.
It’s ironic to post an article from “Current Affairs” that’s from 2017.
Pictured are space-bombers. They drop gravity bombs… in space. Please stop talking about scientific accuracy in Star Wars.
I’m just happy that they say “ex-Fox Host” because it implies that people don’t know who Bill O’Relliy is.
I wrote on a magnitude English better quality than 90% of the world.
The biggest difference between transistor radios and BT hardware is that BT will never give you a prize for being the 9th caller.
I’m just starting “blasphemous” and “inscription”. I just completed “Axiom Verge”.
An (American) football team my family follows used to have a coach that got so upset over plays and calls that he would advance onto the field gesticulating and screaming, causing the team to get penalties.
Did they council this guy to control himself? No. They got someone on staff to physically restrain him when he lost his mind. Like the kid’s only job was to grab the coach by the belt-loops and keep him off the field.
I love this story because it’s about a masculine man engaging in a masculine activity who cannot be expected to control his own hysterics. I keep it in my back pocket for when the “men are stoic, women are emotional” BS comes up.
This is not about stopping bot-scrapers, it’s about charging them.
A coworker once told me that the South was doomed because the North had a larger industrial base. I said that sounded like wisdom in English, but it was a joke in Vietnamese.
No recoil, but you might feel a little sting.
This is the first one of these I’ve upvoted.
You got us all wrong, guy. It’s not the technology we hate. What we hate is “prompt engineers” demanding respect as though they did an accomplishment. If you want uncritical praise and flattery, stick to the prompt.
